However, he is very in depth in his book when showing it to you, therefore drawing it out over the length of the ... differs from other history writers that you can incur every once in a while. Being a history buff, I like to do a lot of reading about different historical time periods. I prefer John Ellis’s method to those history writers who seem to write on and on aimlessly forever, stating a great deal of facts, but having no real point other than to just give you the information.

- 11555: Personal Writing: Going To College And Studying Social Service
- ... Service Paraprofessional program after spending nine long years in the medical field. I came to this decision during the last two years of my employment at a family care practice as a medical receptionist. That's when I started having feelings of resentment for even having to be at work. The work itself was becoming monotonous and repetitive. Every day seemed to drag on and on, and I felt stifled. I ... I was lacking the patience and caring I once had for the patients. I believe this had a lot to do with all the changes that were happening with the insurance companies. The new HMO's were probably the biggest headache in this industry that ever could have happened mainly because it involved a lot of paper work which was very tedious for both the doctor's office and the specialist. This became very confusing to the patients who were used to going to see any doctor they wanted without having referrals. The other biggest hassle with the HMO's, patients ...

- ... turning back and you will never know what might have happened if… In the first stanza of the poem the speaker must choose between two paths that diverge into a yellow dark wood. “In Frost’s poems, woods often symbolize the world in which we live.

Imagery is another characteristic of Robert Frost’s poem. “In several of Frost’s poems, the imagery of woods, trees, and leaves is so intimately and persistently identified with certain psychological states as to assume a symbolic significance.” (Contemporary Literary Criticism) “And both that morning equally lay in ...
- 11557: Affirmative Action
- ... proposed and accepted for a great many reasons that constantly create controversy. Not only minorities have supported affirmative action. Most people would imagine all minorities love affirmative action and strongly voted for it and that's why it passed. That's part of the reason, but we must not forget two major supporters of Affirmative action. One of these supporters is an unsuspected group of men; namely, the Angry White Guys for Affirmative Action. Yes, a ... Rall, author of The Affirmative Action Debate Exposed, supports Proposition 209 because he says: In any situation where there are only a limited number of slots and an excess number of qualified applicants, one person's advantage is another person's disadvantage.

- 11558: Communications Decency Act: Regulation In Cyberspace
- ... Decency Act: Regulation In Cyberspace Being one of millions of surfers throughout the Internet, I see that fundamental civil liberties are as important in cyberspace as they are in traditional contexts. Cyberspace defined in Webster's Tenth Edition dictionary is the on-line worlds of networks. The right to speak and publish using a virtual pen has its roots in a long tradition dating back to the very founding of democracy ... country. With the passage of the 1996 Telecommunications Act, Congress has prepared to turn the Internet from one of the greatest resources of cultural, social, and scientific information into the online equivalent of a children's reading room. By invoking the overboard and vague term “indecent” as the standard by which electronic communication should be censored, Congress has insured that information providers seeking to avoid criminal prosecution will close the gates ... from moral threatening content. This “protect our helpless children” ideology is bogus. If more government officials were more knowledgeable about online information they would realize the huge flaw the Communication Decency Act contains. We don't need the government to patrol fruitlessly on the Internet when parents can simply install software like Net Nanny or Surf Watch. These programs block all “sensitive” material from entering one's modem line. What' ...

- ... Through all of this, he continued to believe that the only hope his people had was if they learned from the white man. On November 29, 1864, a white man from General Stephen Watts Kearney’s army gunned down Yellow Wolf. He was 85 years old. Another part of the book that I truly enjoyed reading was the section on Grant’s Peace Policy. While Grant served as General in Chief of the United State Army a group of Quakers, know as the Friends, urged him to adopt a new peace policy. This policy was to be ... founded on Christianity and peace, rather than on force of arms. The policy also called for men of religious conviction to be appointed to agency posts. Grant quickly embraced this idea and pretty soon Grant’s Peace Policy was adopted. Grant didn’t hold any strong convictions about Indians, but he did indicate that: “Those who do not accept this policy will find the new administration ready for a sharp ...

Theme Under the rule of INGSOC, members of The Party are engrossed in their work. It is essential that the government keeps its people happy in order to avoid rebellions and "thought crimes."
